Blame-Dodging Tanks

This 'Gangsta Rap' T-Shirt Points Fingers at the Radio

This 'Gangsta Rap' T-shirt will help you avoid responsibilities for your actions. The shirt reads, "Gangsta Rap Made Me Do it," cheekily suggesting that the genre is a bad influence. Historically speaking, the rap music has come under scrutiny for overt lyrics themes of drugs, alcohol and undisguised sexuality. If you want to get a little bit naughty without suffering the consequences, this T-shirt is a funny way to escape the blame.

I can't guarantee that your mom (or the cops) will buy this excuse -- after all, blaming rap music for your conduct is akin to abstractedly blaming "society" -- but it's certainly worth a shot. Ultimately, this is the perfect t-shirt for rap music fans and cheeky individuals everywhere who are looking for a way to excuse their bad behavior.
